This is the stuff!
Just received my order from E.E. and had to dive into the cheese sauce and crackers. Great stuff. The cheese was easier to spread than the ones we used to get when I was active duty. Looks like they have made some improvements in that area. Still the same great taste, although a little salty (which I don't mind). Great with MRE crackers for a quick snack.

Great cheese spread
Great all around cheese spread for crackers or the wheat snack bread. Even makes a quick liquid cheese dip if added to boiling water to melt it inside the packet.

Not too much!
I've eaten so many MREs I can't count (from over 7 years being deployed in the Air Force with the Wild Weasel Squadrons) The taste is not too bad, but be careful not to eat more than one pack a day, or you'll be stopped up worse than cold grease down the kitchen sink drain!

It tastes just like an American Cheese slice with butter in it. 1 packet is enough for 2-3 people, for sure. Tastes great!

The all nine players selected by the Chicago Blackhawks have one common ingredient: character. In a draft labeled as one with few players whose abilities have developed enough to project big league success, the Blackhawks scouting staff may not have come through with a gaggle of gems but have come up with team players who shine like gems.

Is Michigan State's Defensemen Duncan Keith a Future Blackhawk Winger?No one doubts how well the almost six foot Duncan Keith his skating. He gets going quick and out- distances the guys around him. At Penticton Jr A he had a hefty 64 assists to go with his 18 goals, so he certainly displays skill, touch and instinct to carry the biscuit, jump into the plays from the defensemen position. The question is would he actually be able to make it as an NHL defensemen at his size and strength. He doesn't project to grow past six foot. That might be very possible, for he certainly has pure speed and agility to create as an winger. He has not yet adjusted to the less free wheeling style of collegiate and has trouble with handling traffic as a college defensemen. Sometimes players are chosen for their character, skills, and determination, and can be projected to another position as possible pros. I realize that the undersized defenseman has chiseled a place in the new NHL transition game and that this young man has the tools to be a Ballard/Bouwmeester type offensively creative player. I also understand you cannot teach speed, and Keith has an abundance of it. I just don't know if he can make it on the backline. Steve McCarthy is an early defensemen pick we are already waiting to see handle the big men in the NHL. Can the Blackhawk defense have room for two? Or was he picked to play elsewhere Read more» Round by round Predictions of Blackhawk picks.This Saturday and Sunday's NHL entry draft allows all us non professionals to speculate on who are hometown teams will scoop up this weekend.

CW-X 3/4 Length Stabilyx Tight - Women's
? Share a...
Edyta McQueen
running tights
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
I wanted to like these more than I did. I didn't particularly feel like they did much from a muscle relief stand point to warrant the extra cost. They make a decent running tight but not sure I buy into the hype. They are tight so if you are sometimes in between two sizes go with the larger one, but otherwise I think they run true to size.

All I can ski in now!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I had ACL reconstructive surgery in March of 2013 due to a skiing accident and was pumped to get back on the hill this '13/'14 season. I made the decision to get a knee brace to protect my new ACL and had the hardest time finding tights that would fit with the brace. I love merino, but due to the wool fibers and overall texture the brace fit horribly and also irritated my skin. I had heard good things about CWX so decided to try out these tights. THEY ARE A GAME CHANGER. Not only does my brace stay on 100%, these things are as supportive as everyone says. They increase circulation, are breathable, are damn comfortable and do not irritate my skin. If you are in unsure of sizing, I recommend going by height. The way the supportive webbing is structured means that you will get the most benefit by going by your leg length. I am 5'2" and went with the small. Be warned, these will be tight like a tiger, but thats what you want in compression tights!

Love It.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I am 5'0" 101 lbs. I purchased XS. The capris fit great except I think they are slightly too long in length so it is slightly off around the knees, but I haven't noticed any issues. I am breastfeeding so my body feels very "relaxed" due to the relaxin hormone. My hips feel very secure, no knee aches and I feel that I recover well after my workouts vs. how I feel post run when wearing my lululemon running capris. I think I should have just ordered the pants to support my calves as the capris cut off in the middle of my calf. I am starting to get use to it.
I took out the string around the waist because it's useless. I am able to fit my phone in the "itty bitty" inside front pocket and I haven't noticed it during my runs.
Today I ran in the pouring rain and surprisingly my legs were the only thing that felt dry. I love these capris! Took a dozen times to wear them to realize how good they feel.
Lexi Dowdall
I removed the elastic string too - seems useless!!

I am 5'2 and weighs 145 lbs. What size should I use. I'm in the white zone of the chart.
Lexi Dowdall
Hey Ing-Marie,
I would go with a size M. I am your height though a little smaller and I barely fit in the size Small, so I think Medium would be best for you.
Love these!
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
This is my second pair of 3/4 length cw-x, I don't run in anything else. These are ideal for spring weather. As others pointed out I don' t care much for the draw string but it's easy enough to remove.
I love the fit, they definitely provide nice support. I had two knee injuries, and surgery and these make all the difference.
Lindsay S.
So far, so good.
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
I originally saw these tights in a local store, but once I saw the hefty price tag, decided against buying them. After continuing the search for the perfect tights, I Googled these and saw that BC had a huge sale. I read the reviews and immediately ordered a pair. I'm 5'4" and 118-120# and got the Small. It fits great! I have worn them around the house to break them in and to Hot Yoga classes. I love the feel and most importantly - you cannot see through them! They are not a cheap/flimsy material. These specific tights are NOT the lined version of CW-X 3/4 pants. That's ok with me though. I look forward to the Spring running season where I will test them outdoors. So far, so good. Very happy with the purchase.
The only con- as someone else mentioned. There is an awkward drawstring. I haven't done anything with it yet, but will most likely remove it altogether. It's not like these pants are going anywhere! They're like a second skin.
Shelley M.
What a difference!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I run half marathons and do Sprint triathlons. I struggle with some IT band pain and some runner's knee issues. I am training for a half marathon right now and ran my personal best training run this weekend in these tights. The tights definitely supported my body well. The fatigue was MUCH less than in other clothing! I highly recommend these tights!

I'm a sprint triathlete and compete in 10K's regularly. Does anyone know whether or not the 3/4 length "Pro" or "Stabilyx" offers more support? I also have a hip injury and I'm a Nordic skier...thinking this would be a great base layer as well. Both models are the same price but I'm having difficulty depicting the difference. Thank you :)
The stabilyx will offer better hip and core support. The pros focus more on muscle support.

Worn for every workout.....
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs large
My wife has had these tights and has worn them for over two years. She wears them to trail run and as a baselayer for nordic skiing and racing...... and sometimes around the house all day if she doesnt have time to change :) She actually wore them under a skin suit in the Cours du Bois 90 K skate race where conditions went from spring-like to blizzard -like at the top of the Divide. She says they literally saved her ars. The compression memory has held up over time. They are breathable in the crotch and do not retain odor. The decals (silver and raspberry) partially came off after several months of washing. It is important to size DOWN with these. (If you are a large, order a medium). You want to have to wiggle into them.
stabilyx women's 3/4 length tights
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I am a male, 6 foot, 175 pounds, and fit the women's large better than the men's large as recommended by a retailer. I thought she was crazy thinking I would fit the women's medium best. So i stayed with the women's large over the men's large which was too loose in the knees. They do a good job of supporting my knees. I have used them in mountain biking, rock climbing, hiking, photography-back country photo shoots, and soon snowboarding as winter arrives. You definitely can feel the support in the knees, and hips/core areas. Great technical garment. I get some second looks in a 3/4 length capri in green stitch piping, but full length will not work in a ski/snowboard boot. I care about my knees and function far more than worrying about what other people think of the look on me. Highly recommend this item for anyone wanting or needing the support these tights provide. Well worth the price. I do wish they were another inch or so longer.
Awesome running pants!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
My runs go a lot better when I'm wearing these pants. Not only are they supportive and make my knees feel great but they look good so I feel better! They are tight so I don't like to wear them for long after my runs because I start to get itchy where they bunch behind the knees. While running I have no discomfort though. I like the 3/4 length vs the full length pants.
I love how the stitching is colorful and crosses all over the pants. It gives them a unique, fun look.
Even though these are not the CW-X insulated pants, they are still warm. I can't wear them above 70 degrees outside. It's so hard to run in shorts instead of these amazing pants though.
The only thing that I do not like: the drawstring waist band. It's weird tying it in a bow tie and trying to tuck it into the pants or letting it hang out. Also, mine was fraying so I put fray check on it which made the edge a little rough. Ultimately I pulled the string out.

Stabilyx Tight
great video!
Great workout pants
I am pleased with this purchase ... the rainbow stitch pants are fun to wear. I definitely have less fatigue during workouts and feel like it gives a little extra stability for my knees.
I have two other pairs of CW-X that are size small but I had to go up to a medium in these ... I think it is the added panel for the abs/back that makes them run a little smaller. I am right on the cusp between small and medium on their size chart anyway. If you fall in between sizes, I would go with the larger size for this version.
Just what I needed!
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I was in desperate need of new capris & heard great things about the stabilyx tight. To be honest, first run I didn't love them as I felt they bunched up around the backs of my knees. Gave them another shot & found the perfect fit. I love how they hold everything in & make me feel supported.
They were warmer than I thought they would be, so take that into consideration when heading out for a run. In honestly I almost like them more for post-runs than running in them.
My mom (who just ran the Boston Marathon on Monday) swears by them. Also saw a lot of other marathoners in them, so that has to mean something!
Btw, 5'7", 135lbs and I have a size Medium. They look tiny, but fit perfect!
love these to run in.
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I am not a runner. but these are great tights to run in. it seems like i'm not as achy after (maybe because i don't jiggle as much). i'm (almost) 5'4"and my only complaint would be that these are meant for slightly taller people, so i really have to pull them up high around the knee to keep them from falling below my knees as I run. even so, they're great and I'm thinking about getting a second pair. i'm also about 140lbs and a medium worked great.
I have looked evrywhere for these CW-X 3/4...
I have looked evrywhere for these CW-X 3/4 stabilyx tight in XL - no one has XL ?
I have problems w/ knee pain n have been looking for an alternative to knee brace (kickboxing/lunges/running) all difficult w/out strong support.
I am so excited to get a pair after reading the great reviews.
Anyone know where I can find these in XL?
Hey Sharon,
Unfortunately CW-X does not currently make an XL in any of their tights. Backcountry does have a pretty exceptional return policy if you want to give the large a try!
Great tights for multiple uses
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I love these tights. I've been wearing them for a long time for running, gym work, and as a base layer for skiing. They rock!
LOVE these!
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These are AWESOME! I run nearly every day and tried these out a few months ago. I can definitely feel the support with these and would recommend them to runners who are looking for some high quality gear.
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Amazing. And I agree with BonnieLass, the knee support is great but what these do to your butt, well you have to see for yourself! Keeps everything in where it should and makes you feel secure and supported in all the right places. High enough waistband to tuck in most of the wobblies. I am 5"4 and on the size chart was inbetween a S and a M - I chose an M because my tummy is bigger than my butt and legs and I didn't want to feel like a constricted sausage. I opened the pack and laughed my head off thinking there was no way I was going to get into a M. Well like everyone says they are a bit tight to get on but once they are on, they fit like a comfortable glove. If in doubt, I would go for the size up if you are in the grey area in the sizing chart. Only thing I have noticed is that my hip to knee length ratio is not quite right - ie the area where your kneecap is supposed to fit is slightly lower than my kneecap as I have shorter thighs - just means that there is a little bit of bunching at the back of my knees but once I get going I don't notice this at all.
Thoroughly recommend these!
Knees? Who cares! Check out my butt!
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Ok, so I got these to support my knees and IT band. I chose the 3/4 length because 1) they were on sale, 2) I was afraid to try to get into the full-length ones!
I am 5'7", 145-150. Solidly in the Medium (go to the CW-X site for excellent size charts). *yeah, right* When I got them I laughed, but gamely followed the instructions to get them on. Well, dang. They do fit. And dang... look at my butt! (I'll just hide that roll above the waistband under a nice loose running shirt!)
They're not gonna do miracles, but while running, they do feel supportive. And I liked pulling the waistband up in back to support my lower back. Less post-run fatigue? Maybe. I kept mine on for an afternoon and wasn't uncomfortable. So you could probably wear them for recovery gear also.
A funny feature: I didn't see a review that mentioned the drawcord waist. Think about that for a moment... These are hardcore compression gear. A drawstring? Seriously? I decided that the cord must be a safety device... you wrap it around your wrist so if the pants explode while you're running, you won't kill someone. I pulled mine out. I didn't like that bow in front detracting from my butt ;)

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
My old vacuum cleaner was ten years old and ready to be retired. I had bought it from Walmart.com for $150 and it had worked pretty well. I saw this Bissell vacuum cleaner on Amazon.com for $75 (with free shipping with Amazon Prime) and thought it was a pretty good bargain. It also had mostly good reviews from the Amazon reviewers. Initially I was pleased with the Bissell. It actually works in lifting materials off the floor (this sounds silly but some cheap vacuum cleaners fail to even do this). It it very light (about half the weight of my old vacuum cleaner). It has a number of different filters, some of them HEPA filters. It is "bagless" and easy to empty. It also has this nifty roller attachment (called a "TurboBrush") that you can attach to the hose for detailed vacuuming. Within the first month of use, however, the rubber belt that spins the brush snapped. I called the Bissell toll-free customer service number and they were polite and helpful and are sending me 2 new belts for free. While I am waiting, I have been using the little "TurboBrush" to vacuum the floor. This is when I discovered that the hose is ridiculously short (another problem). Despite those complaints, however, it's still a pretty good deal for $75. I would only get it if you are on a tight budget and live in a small apartment (like me).

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP/WMOT) — An Associated Press exit poll shows Rick Santorum owes his Tennessee primary victory to strong support among born-again Christians.
Santorum led Republican rival Mitt Romney 3 to 1 among those who say it matters a "great deal" that a candidate share their religious beliefs. He also led among voters who considered themselves "very conservative," and among voters who supported the tea party.
Romney led among voters who considered themselves "moderate" or "liberal." He also led among voters with an annual income of more than $100,000.
NASHVILLE, Tenn (AP/WMOT) — An exit poll of voters in Tennessee's presidential primary showed Rick Santorum beat Mitt Romney thanks to strong support among born-again Christians — about three-quarters of those who went to the polls on Tuesday.
Santorum also led Romney 3 to 1 among those who said it mattered a "great deal" that a candidate shared their religious beliefs.
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (WMOT) -- Tennessee joins 9 other states for Super Tuesday presidential primary voting tomorrow. As you've heard John and Celeste mention, Santorum and Romney are running neck-and-neck in several states.
The vote appears to be shaping up differently here in Tennessee. Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum held a two-to-one lead over former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in polls conducted recently by both the Survey Group at Middle Tennessee State University and the Vanderbilt Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP/WMOT) Presidential candidate Rick Santorum says he's undaunted that most Tennessee Republican leaders have chosen not to endorse him for the nomination.
The former U.S. senator from Pennsylvania told reporters after a speech at the Temple Baptist Church in Powell Wednesday that as the "insurgent candidate," he doesn't expect to draw the support of GOP establishment.
But Santorum expressed confidence he will carry Tennessee and other states holding their primaries on Super Tuesday.

Lyssie71's Note:
If you like crispy, battered zucchini, this is the lowfat alternative for you!! I could not believe it, but they came out crispy!! The egg whites are the secret. The recipe below is straight off the WW website. The flour definitely needs MORE seasoning though - garlic? Cayenne? Salt after they're out of the oven? I will be perfecting this for our family's tastes, but these zukes are going into our regular rotation!! Like I said, if you are looking for a lowfat batter alternative that's is NOT like the "corn flake baked" variety....this is for you!

Biblical humility is grounded in the character of God. The Father stoops down to help the poor and needy ( Psalm 113:4-9 ; 138:6-7 ); the incarnate Son exhibits humility from the manger to the cross ( Matt 11:29 ; Acts 8:32-33 ; Php 2:5-8 ). The dual usage of "meek" (Gk. praus [prau?"]) and "humble (tapeinos [tapeinov"] "low") in heart" in Matthew 11:29 emphasizes Christ's humility before humankind, whom he came to serve ( Matt 20:28 ; Mark 10:45 ; Luke 22:27 ) and his submission before God. Humility and meekness are often inseparable ( 2 Col 10:1 ; Eph 4:2 ; Col 3:12 ).
As a sign of genuine religion ( Mic 6:8 ) humility is necessary to enter God's kingdom ( Matt 5:3 ; 18:1-4 ) or to be great in it ( Matt 20:26-27 ; Mark 10:43-44 ). As the absence of self ( Matt 10:38-39 ; Luke 9:23-25 ), it is a bankruptcy of spirit ( Matt 5:3 ) that accrues no merit but depends solely on God's righteousness for salvation ( Luke 18:9-14 Luke 18:15-17 ). It may involve praying ( 2 Chron 7:14 ; Dan 6:10 ; 9:3-20 ), fasting ( Lev 16:29-32 ; 23:27-32 ; Ezra 8:21 Ezra 8:23 ; Psalm 35:13 ; Daniel 10:1-3 Daniel 10:12 ), and falling prostrate ( Ezek 1:28 ; Dan 6:10 ; Rev 1:12-17 ) before the Lord. Since the Lord denounces hypocritical worship ( Isa 58:3-7 ; Matthew 6:5-8 Matthew 6:16-18 ) and false humility ( Colossians 2:18 Colossians 2:23 ), a person's heart must match his or her posture ( Isa 57:15 ; Luke 18:9-14 ; cf. Isa 6:5 ; Matt 11:29 ).
Humility is the prerequisite for honor ( Prov 15:33 ; 18:12 ; 22:4 ; 29:23 ) and physical blessing ( Psalm 37:11 ; Matt 5:5 ). Intimately associated with the fear of the Lord ( Psalms 25:9 Psalms 25:12-14 ; Prov 15:33 ), it may provide the key to wealth and life ( Prov 22:4 ); but even when blessings are postponed, a humble spirit is necessary ( Prov 16:18-19 ; cf. Romans 12:14 Romans 12:16-17 ). It is the gateway to eternal life ( Matt 5:3 ; 18:1-4 ), not necessarily physical reward (5:10-12).
God gives grace to the humble (or afflicted) but resists the proud ( Prov 3:34 ; James 4:6 ; 1 Peter 5:5 ). Regardless of social or moral position ( Luke 1:48 Luke 1:52-54 ; cf. Psalm 51:16-17 ), God often delivers people who humble themselves before him whether righteous kings ( 2 Chron 32:24-26 ; 34:26-28 ), wicked rulers ( 1 Kings 21:27-29 ; 2 Chron 33:12-13 ), or commoners ( 2 Ch 30:8-11 ).
The Lord exalts the humble ( Matt 23:12 ; Luke 1:52 ; 14:11 ; 18:14 ; James 4:10 ) in his proper timing ( 1 Peter 5:6 ). A person must not claim honor for self ( Prov 25:6-7 ; Luke 14:7-11 ) but have an unassuming attitude ( Rom 12:3 ). Jesus' teaching and life illustrate this perfectly. He humbled himself as a servant ( John 13:1-16 ), even unto death ( Isa 53:7-8 ; Acts 8:32-33 ) in obedience to the Father ( Php 2:5-8 ), who highly exalted him (vv. 9-11).
The Lord rewards the humble with wisdom ( Prov 11:2 ). He does not ignore the plight of the humble and contrite ( Isaiah 66:2 Isaiah 66:5 ) but encourages the lowly and afflicted of heart ( Isa 57:15 ; 2 Cor 7:6 ).
The Christian ought to emulate Christ's example ( Matt 11:28-30 ; 2 Col 10:1 ) of meekness and humility. Humility is the foremost test of a truly great person or leader ( Luke 22:24-27 ). Paul's teachings and life ( Acts 20:18-21 ) emphasize and elucidate Christian humility. Recognizing he was the chief sinner ( 1 Tim 1:15 ) and the least saint and apostle ( 1 Cor 15:9 ; Eph 3:8 ) he gloried in the grace of God ( 1 Cor 15:10 ; cf. 2 Cor 12:9-10 ) and in the cross of Christ ( Gal 6:14 ; cf. 1 Cor 1:18-2:5 ) rather than self-righteousness ( Php 3:3-9 ).

a prominent Christian grace ( Romans 12:3 ; Romans 15:17 Romans 15:18 ; 1 Corinthians 3:5-7 ; 2 co 3:5 ; Phil 4:11-13 ). It is a state of mind well pleasing to God ( 1 Peter 3:4 ); it preserves the soul in tranquillity ( Psalms 69:32 Psalms 69:33 ), and makes us patient under trials ( Job 1:22 ).
Christ has set us an example of humility (Phil 2:6-8 ). We should be led thereto by a remembrance of our sins ( Lamentations 3:39 ), and by the thought that it is the way to honour ( Proverbs 16:18 ), and that the greatest promises are made to the humble ( Psalms 147:6 ; Isaiah 57:15 ; 66:2 ; 1 Peter 5:5 ). It is a "great paradox in Christianity that it makes humility the avenue to glory."
hu-mil'-i-ti (~[`anawah]; tapeinophrosune):
(1) The noun occurs in the Old Testament only in Proverbs 15:33; 18:12; 22:4, but the adjective "humble" appears frequently as the translation of `ani, `anaw, shaphal, meaning also "poor," "afflicted"; the verb, as the translation of `anah, "to afflict," "to humble," and of kana`, "to be or become humbled"; tsana`, "to be lowly," occurs in Micah 6:8. For "humble" (Psalms 9:12; 10:12) the Revised Version (British and American) has "poor"; Psalms 10:17; 34:2; 69:32, "meek"; for "humbled" (Psalms 35:13), "afflicted" (Isaiah 2:11; 10:33), "brought low"; for "He humbleth himself" (Isaiah 2:9) "is brought low," margin "humbleth himself"; Psalms 10:10, "boweth down"; tapeinophrosune is translated "humility" (Colossians 2:18,23; 1 Peter 5:5); in several other places it is translated "lowliness" and "lowliness of mind"; tapeinos is translated "humble" (James 4:6; 1 Peter 5:5; elsewhere "lowly," etc.; 1 Peter 3:8, tapeinophron), the Revised Version (British and American) "humble-minded"; tapeinoo, "to humble," occurs frequently (Matthew 18:4; 23:12, etc.); tapeinosis is "humiliation" (Acts 8:33); for "vile body" (Philippians 3:21) the Revised Version (British and American) gives "body of our humiliation."
(2) (a) In the Old Testament as well as in the New Testament, humility is an essential characteristic of true piety, or of the man who is right with God. God humbles men in order to bring them to Himself (Deuteronomy 8:2,3, etc.), and it is when men humble themselves before Him that they are accepted (1 Kings 21:29; 2 Chronicles 7:14, etc.); to "walk humbly with thy God" completes the Divine requirements (Micah 6:8). In Psalms 18:35 (2 Samuel 22:36) the quality is ascribed to God Himself, "Thy gentleness (or condescension) hath made me great." Of "him that hath his seat on high" it is said, (Hebrew) "humbleth (shaphel) himself to behold the things that are in heaven and in the earth" (Psalms 113:6). It is in the humble heart that "the high and lofty One, .... whose name is Holy" dwells (Isaiah 57:15; compare Isaiah 66:2).
(b) The word tapeinophrosune is not found in classical Greek (Lightfoot); in the New Testament (with the exception of 1 Peter 5:5) it is Pauline. In Greek pre-Christian writers tapeinos is, with a few exceptions in Plato and Platonic writers, used in a bad or inferior sense--as denoting something evil or unworthy. The prominence it gained in Christian thought indicates the new conception of man in relation to God, to himself, and to his fellows, which is due to Christianity. It by no means implies slavishness or servility; nor is it inconsistent with a right estimate of oneself, one's gifts and calling of God, or with proper self-assertion when called for. But the habitual frame of mind of a child of God is that of one who feels not only that he owes all his natural gifts, etc., to God, but that he has been the object of undeserved redeeming love, and who regards himself as being not his own, but God's in Christ. He cannot exalt himself, for he knows that he has nothing of himself. The humble mind is thus at the root of all other graces and virtues. Self-exaltation spoils everything. There can be no real love without humility. "Love," said Paul, "vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up" (1 Corinthians 13:4). As Augustine said, humility is first, second and third in Christianity.
(c) Jesus not only strongly impressed His disciples with the need of humility, but was in Himself its supreme example. He described Himself as "meek and lowly (tapeinos) in heart" (Matthew 11:29). The first of the Beatitudes was to "the poor in spirit" (Matthew 5:3), and it was "the meek" who should "inherit the earth. Humility is the way to true greatness:
he who should "humble himself as this little child" should be "the greatest in the kingdom of heaven"; "Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted" (Matthew 18:4; 23:12; Luke 14:11; 18:14). To the humble mind truth is revealed (Matthew 11:25; Luke 10:21). Jesus set a touching example of humility in His washing His disciples' feet (John 13:1-17).
(d) Paul, therefore, makes an earnest appeal to Christians (Philippians 2:1-11) that they should cherish and manifest the Spirit of their Lord's humility--"in lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself," and adduces the supreme example of the self-emptying (kenosis) of Christ:
"Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus," etc. The rendering of heauton ekenosen (Philippians 2:7 the King James Version) by "he humbled himself" has given rise to the designation of the Incarnation as "the Humiliation of Christ."
(e) There is a false humility which Paul warns against, a self-sought, "voluntary humility" (Colossians 2:18,23). This still exists in many forms, and has to be guarded against. It is not genuine humility when we humble ourselves with the feeling that we are greater than others, but only when we do not think of self at all. It is not alone the sense of sin that should create the humble spirit:
Jesus had no sin. It belongs not merely to the creature, but even to a son in relation to God. There may be much self-satisfaction where sinfulness is confessed. We may be proud of our humility. It is necessary also always to beware of "the pride that apes humility."

When to Splurge and When to Save
Save on Helmet
7 / 10
All helmets sold in the United States meet CPSC safety standards, so a $30 lid is equally as good at protecting your head as a $200 one. Also, keep in mind that you'll need to buy a new helmet every time you crash, although many manufacturers have replacement programs. Many under-$60 helmets offer fit systems similar to pricier models, often head straps with buckles or dials for easy adjustment. They just lack flashy styling and extra vent holes.

This is the perfect foundation for me. I only use it where I need coverage and I pat it on lightly, and it looks fresh for hours. Feels clean on my skin as well. Better than any department store I have tried. Also better than Revlon ColorStay.

When I first saw my friend using this product I was amazed at how great her skin looked after she put it on so I decided that when I was finished with my current foundation I would try this one next. I bought it in the lightest color there was (Porcelain Ivory) and wasn't impressed. The coverage was really nice, and after putting on powder it would have looked flawless but the color did not match my skin at all. But I can't blame that so much on the product, but the color selection wasn't really phenomenal. I've always had trouble finding foundation that's light enough for my skin because every one I've tried is usually too yellow or too pink, in this case it was too pink. Aside from all of that, the price was alright (a bit on the high side for drugstore) and if you can find a shade that matches your skin tone this foundation does last a good while (but not 24 hours).
Okay I have extremely oily skin!! so I needed something that would stay for longer then 1 minute. Anyway I have used Revlon Colorstay in Caramel and while Ikind of like the color better then Caramel in Superstay I like the coverage of Syperstay better.
It's thicker and gives more of a med to full coverage (I have acne scars) that need concealing. Anyway along with the Superstay in Caramel I use Everyday minerals in Tan to offset the yellow tone in the Superstay.
Overall I like it for the price and coverage.
Alright I'm back! What I am doing now is mixing Revlon Colorstay (Caramel) and Superstay (Caramel) together and it's PERFECT!!!
Like I said before the Superstay has this strong yellow undertone and the Colorstay when putting enough to cover acne scars can be too dark soooooo I combined the two and I have the perfect color and coverage! I am also using MOM and I noticed when I used it with the SUperstay alone OMG!! I looked a hot mess it made me look bleached out or something.
Now when I use MOM (to control the shine) with the two foundations combined you can't tell and my oily skin has a matte finished! (for now) it's been 5 hrs and I only have a tiny bit of shine on my forehead where by now my entire face would be super oily!!.
I think it's the combo of the 2 foundations is helping with the oliness b/c when I used the MOM with the superstay it didn't help the oiliness at all!
Who would've thought that combining 2 rival foundations would give me the perfect color, coverage and shine control?!!! Kboogie is a happy girl!! Ya'll just don't know how happy I am..... seriously!
LOL! I'm back again and after really trying to study make up and undertones (this is very important). I discovered I actually have a red/peachy undertone with a hint of yellow and the majority of the foundations I was wearing were either very yellow/olive or orange.
I bought the Superstay in Honey Beige but it didn't work with the Caramel so doing a little experimenting I mixed the Honey Beige which has a slight red/pink undertone with my Iman's cream to powder in Earth 1 and it looks perfect. The Earth 1 is waaaay to dark and the Honey Beige is waaay too light to wear alone but together they work perfect!!

I must say that I was surprised to actually love this foundation! I was a little skeptical to try it since Ive been using Revlon's CS, but I had bought it at CVS in their BOGO sale. I really like it! I have used it to work ( nurse on a 12hour shift) and it lasted pretty much my whole shift! No transfer or oxidizing issues! with revlon i did have transferring issues even when i touched/itched my face you could see where my finger was, but with Superstay it didnt! The only downside was that after like 6 hours it did get oily in my usual t-zone, but blotting wipes take care of that! Dont get their superstay powder though, didnt like at all! I just kept using the Revlon CS powder with this foundation =]

This foundation lives up to its name, and lasts forever. my skin is sensitive and has a tendency to get slightly oily, but this foundation does not irritate my skin, and it reduces the shine ! The bottle isnt a pump, which is a minor downfall, but i apply it with a q-tip and it works fine. One bottle last a long time for me. ive had it for a month and the bottle is still filled to the top :)
It doesnt clog my pores. The coverage is great and covers my small scar on my face.
Ill def be buying again!

I just bought this a few days ago and used it today. I hate redoing my make up and I have horrible skin with rosacea dots allll over - so I need to pile it on every few hours. This didn't even last four hours, let alone 24 hours! I like the color and it goes on nicely and is breathable, but it DOES rub off unlike it says. I would definitely not buy this again... a nice foundation with a good color and no funky smell, but it isn't true to its name!

I love the bottle-slim, not a pump makes it easy to use with a sponge.
It lasted all day at work, I don't like re doing makeup at lunch.
I have combination skin and this together with Revlon Colorstay foundation as well as another Maybelline foundation Dream Mousse ( the one in the pot) are very good products to which I turn to all the time.
I thought that the selection of colors was not bad. this is not mac, and this is just personally, I get lost and overwhelmed at mac and too many choices
I think lately drugstore prices are higher than they used to be, but yet they are still affordable and you can "play" more

I'm sort of biased with the this product; the colors completely do not match my skin tone. The lightest color is still too dark for me. Despite that, I still liked the blending qualities. It lasted quite a while, but not as long as revlon color stay.
Overall, an okay foundation.

This is my new staple foundation! It's more than I like to spend on foundation, but it works pretty well as long as my skin isn't too dry cos it reveals my peeling skin lol. I hate when I get to the bottom of the bottle, though, because it's impossible to get the last bit of it.

i tested out the foundations on my face at walmart, deciding natural beige was closest to my skin color, even though i'm not even that white. so i bought it, $9, a little pricey for me but i had high expectations. when i got home, i tried it on, and the second i stepped into the natural light, it just looked ridiculous. it was BRIGHT ORANGE, didnt blend out well, ugh. what a waste of money. i gave it an extra lippie because maybe it has good staying power, despite the awful color. and the packaging is cute. it was a waste of money overall, i hope the revlon colorstay has better results for me. :/

Salted Caramel Chocolate Ganache Tarts with Cookie Crust
This story should tell you how good this is:
I tried to freeze half of this tart to prevent myself from eating it too quickly.
But I found myself repeatedly pulling it out of the freezer to pry out a frozen hunk of the stuff.
Two voices could be heard in my head, one going,
"You doofus, it is COMPLETELY frozen to the bowl" as I tried to pry it out of the Pyrex with a fork.
And another, saying, "BAHHHHHH GIVE ME CHOCOLATE CARAMEL TART!!!" … (that's the voice that always won).
…my goodness. This kind of behavior might happen to you too, but it's definitely worth it.
Start by making the cocoa cookie crust.
Bake it briefly in the oven, then let it cool down.
In the meantime, make the caramel. Creamy, thick caramel.
Pour the caramel into the cooled crust, and refrigerate for about 3 hours, until set.
Top with the chocolate ganache, then sprinkle with sea salt.
Salted Caramel Chocolate Ganache Tarts with Cookie Crust
Yield: one 11" tart
For the Cookie Crust:
7.5 oz all purpose flour (1.5 cups)
1 oz cocoa powder (1/2 cup)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp butter (1.25 sticks), at room temperature
2.5 oz confectioner's sugar (1/2 cup)
2 egg yolks
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
For the Salted Caramel:
2.25 cups sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup water
6 tbsp butter, at room temperature
1.5 cups heavy cream
1.5 tsp vanilla extract
For the Chocolate Ganache:
4 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
coarse sea salt, for garnish
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
For the crust, whisk to combine the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside. In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add in the egg yolks and vanilla, and mix until combined. Little by little, add the dry ingredients until incorporated. The dough may look crumbly, but it should come together easily when you pinch the dough between two fingers.
Press the dough out into your tart pan. Prick all over with a fork, and pop into the freezer for 10 minutes. Bake for 15 minutes, then cool completely on a wire rack. On to the caramel.
Place the sugar in a heavy bottomed saucepan, then give it a shake to flatten out the sugar pile. Add the water, corn syrup, and salt, but DO NOT STIR. Cook over medium heat until the sugar turns clear and dissolves. After the sugar has dissolved, it will bubble more vigorously and the sugar mixture will start to take on an amber color. Once it looks caramel colored, stir in the butter. Be careful of potential sputtering. Remove the pan from the heat, and add the heavy cream and vanilla (and again, stand back). Don't worry if the caramel separates. Cook for 10 minutes over medium high heat, stirring with a spatula, until it's smooth and thickened. Pour the caramel into the cooled crust, and refrigerate for about 3 hours, until set.
To make the chocolate ganache, heat the heavy cream to a simmer, then pour it over the chocolate. Let it sit for 60 seconds, then stir until smooth. Pour the chocolate ganache over the caramel tart, and refrigerate for a few hours until set.
To serve, cut into slices and garnish with sea salt, if desired. Enjoy!!!

I love caramel. I don't like salt. I particularly don't like salt in caramel — I'll be glad when this trend runs its course: your tart looks gorgeous. The caramel looks to-die-for. I would want to eat it, but the salt would make me so unhappy I would jerk my head away and run for a glass of water. As we used to say in high school, "Je don't get it."
Yeah, I don't like the "trendiness" of salted caramel but I almost always add some to caramel because I think the salt is important to balance out the sweetness of the caramel. The salt should be very light though, just a hint of it for balance. It certainly shouldn't taste salty!
I haven't made caramel for awhile (it's a December thing around here and then again in the spring when raspberries come in), but I'm guessing I never use more than an eighth teaspoon of salt in it — just the barest touch.
Try not to take this personally, but you are EVIL, EVIL, EVIL! I mean just look at this. I think I'll share this on Facebook too. You should just sync your posts to my page!
HAHAHAHA! This comment is too funny. I should put a warning on my blog "view at your own risk" LOL.
I'm thinking the same think would be going on in my head. This looks amazing
This looks so decadent… I am wishing that forkful was headed my way. This is a great combo of ingredients that very few people don't like, so I hope you barred the door and hid that dessert or it is all eaten because once the word is out about this-you will have a crowd. Sinfully delicious. Great post.
HAHAAHAHA! Well, it's already all gone, I have to admit. I will definitely be making it again very shortly though!
Joanne: Your caramel; is it the type that sticks to your teeth?
That would be a problem for me.
Hi Charlie! It's always good to hear from you. Hm, it doesn't quite stick to the teeth, but it's definitely runny. I didn't have any teeth issues though, and I know what you are talking about.
Oh my how am I ever going to lose weight, I am going to try this for sure !
HAHA! This is exactly my problem too.
Holy cow woman! Look at all that glorious caramel! I want this now!!
Lol! No need to apologize for not being able to resist this caramelly goodness. Who could? It looks awesome!
I think I just fainted! It looks… fantastic
I have a weakness for caramel and you head picture tells me all I need to know about how good this is.
Great insight into your crazy genius brain!!
Oh wow. Just wow. This looks amazing!!
This looks absolutely delicious. Weekend dessert in our house for sure! Thanks!!
Let me know how it goes Maggie!
oh….my! That is amazing! I would have been prying it out of the frozen plate, too! I think it's time to recognize that this must NOT be frozen, but enjoyed with a someone. I am available to help in this matter! *making the "call me" hand signal with thumb and pinky extended*
You have such great drool inducing photographs! The caramel looks sooooo good
That looks so good. I love the approach of the caramel ganach.
I just came here from Rufus' blog, all I can say is OH MY! I'm going to attempt to halve this recipe and use a mini spring form pan, any thoughts? If it works out, these may end up being gifts for some lucky few. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Mary, Hm, that would probably work. I don't know how big your pan is but if you're fine with having a little extra I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem (and as Greg said, extra caramel is not a problem LOL).
How have I not found your blog before tonight? I love your style of writing and your food styling photography… delicousness!
I was sent here by Rufus, and oh. my. word. What an AMAZING looking tart. Holy buckets; I'm going t have to whip up one of these bad boys…
It's honestly one of the best things I've ever eaten, and in case you couldn't tell, I eat a lot of pretty awesome food LOL! Let me know how it goes if you make it!
It looks wonderful but before I start, I have a question about the butter measurement: 1/4 cup + 2 tbsps butter does not equal 1.25 sticks- in my world, anyway. 1 stick of butter is usually half a cup. So is it 2oz + 2 tbsps or is it 5oz. ? Or did I read it wrong?
Hi Judy! I don't know why I put next to it that it's 1.25 sticks…it's 3/4 of a stick. I changed it. Thank you!
Okay no, I was confused. I looked at it more carefully and it IS 1.25 sticks, so it's 1/2 cup + 2tbsp, so it should be 10 tbsp in all. Goodness me! The crust portion I adapted from my baking addiction (linked to at the bottom).
I just made this for my holiday book club, AKA The Drunk Club that Reads. The tart was ridiculous to cut, and the first few pieces served were smooshy heaps. Still, the tart was beyond decadent and went fabulously with the port we had, and everyone went ape over it.
I think the next time I make this, I'll line the crust with pecans or even do a nut-based crust. As amazing as the recipe is, it might benefit from a salty element within the tart. -
I made this and it was just incredible. Very difficult to have more than a tiny slice though, sooo sweet (not a bad thing!!!!) You can see mine here
Hi Jessie, I visited your page and left a comment "Yours turned out wonderful! Glad you enjoyed the tart…I love that stuff. I agree…small slices! haha." However, it didn't show up I don't think. For some reason this always happens when I try to comment on blogspot blogs with my Mac.
Thanks for letting me know
Wow. I was scrolling through your "deserts" section and just had to click on this. The next thing I knew, the crust was already in the oven, even though we still have your lemon bars and half a cake in the fridge and probably shouldn't have any more sugar. Everything here just looks so AMAZING…. I am so glad my cousin told me about this site
I love your baked goods and look forward to trying them myself.

WESTERN District Health Service (WDHS) is urging members of the local community to spend a few hours of their time knocking on doors to raise funds for vital hospital equipment.
It not only gives people the chance to contribute to the health service but also to interact with their local community.
Even WDHS chief executive, Jim Fletcher gets involved and knocks on a few doors.
"You can't be asking volunteers to be doing it if you're not prepared to do it yourself, that's the way I look at it," Mr Fletcher said.
"Some people get a bit of a surprise when they see who it is at the door, but it is good to get out there and meet some of the community members."

item #1230477
(stock #005612)
Good costume jewelry can rival the real thing when the best craftsmanship, design, and materials are used. This bracelet of very large links looks unbelievably like real silver. The bracelet fits the wrist snugly because the links are woven on elastic to make it easy on and off and comfort. The surface of each link has slight variations between links, adding a more authentic look to it. It is a really gorgeous bracelet. Each link is approximately 2" long X 1" wide and there are eight.
All Items : Gifts & Home Decor : Jewelry and Accessories : Ethnic : Contemporary
item #1230474
(stock #010083)
This is a remarkably well-designed and crafted bracelet that looks very authentic although it is costume. It has a lot of heft and is covered with tiny beads of silver woven into an intricate and ornate pattern all over the surface. The black stone looks like onyx although it is synthetic, it, too, looks very real. You will get many compliments on this and it is destined to be noticed! Dimensions are 2-1/2" diameter and about 1-3/4" wide.
All Items : Gifts & Home Decor : Jewelry and Accessories : Contemporary
item #1080170
(stock #001110023e)
This pendant is made from beautifully crafted woven chain, executed in several different ways. The chain itself is square, herringbone and is approximately 22" long and is terminated with a lobster clasp. The pendant is a circle of two layers of woven silver wire with 9 strands of another style of woven pieces, all hanging in a "flowing" manner. These strands move to give even greater interest to the piece. The pendant is attached with a loose, flat twisted piece of silver wire. All in all, this is a very distinctive and well designed necklace. It looks like sterling, but I don't believe it is. The pendant itself is 1-1/4" in diameter.
This cloth is especially made for caring for sterling or silver plate and contains two cloths: one to treat and clean the silver and the other to polish.

I saw one at the used section of my LGS today picking up my new AR. It cost only 200 euros, but the wood was still gorgeous (it had light wood with darker wood swirls within). I did not have a camera though. Maybe next time if it is still there. There was even a bayonet that looked brand new. I almost took the gun home too, but I would need permission from German government since it is a "weapon of war". It took a long time for permission for my AR.
The Mosin-Nagant is the rifle that beat the German Master-race in WWII, and the rifle that the Finns used to attain a kill rate of 40 to 1 fighting Russians. It deserves a bit of respect for that. I have several that are over 100 years old and are still reliable, functional accurate weapons. It is the longest serving military weapons system of recent times, starting in the 19th century, serving the entire 20th century, and still appears in fights in the 21st. An M-28/30 or M-39 in the hands of an expert rifleman can hold its own against the '03, or the Mauser. One of the most sucessful snipers ever, used a Mosin-Nagant rifle to kill over 500 Russians in about 90 days, and without a telescopic sight. Collectors in the '60s and '70s could buy '03s, Enfields, Mausers, Arisakas and the rest for under $50.00 and sometimes under $20.00 because they were considered cheap junk. Mosin-Nagant rifles seem to be following the same trend. In the five years I have been collecting most of my Mosin rifles have tripled in value. As soon as the Mosin supply dries up, and it will, the price will go through the roof.
"It is better to be too skeptical then too credulous" Carl Sagan
You guys are missing one small fact, There are Finn Mosin Nagants also. $400.00 for a m27 carbine or high priced M39.
Freedom is not free. The best of us always leave too soon.
Yeah. The Mosin just flat sucks.
I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man. ~George Washington
Mosinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn powaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Review this carBy jed on Wednesday, November 05, 2014
I own this car - My approximate mileage is 60,000
overall rating 2 of 10rating detailsPros: "It runs well! Has a good sized trunk."
Cons: "Very poor visibility, too many blind spots."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1
"I truly dislike this car for many reasons, but the foremost reason is the poor visibility and numerous blind spots. My second item of dislike is the dashboard. The dials are very difficult to read during the day. The orange glow of the nighttime is not very pleasant either. The floor carpets finally had to be removed from the driver's side due to their constant movement under the accelerator. It has been reliable, however, and that is a plus"

I owned and sold this car
Reason: needed larger vehicle
Pros: "Easy comfortable ride - lots of interior space."
Cons: "Trunk only opened manually. Felt all the bumps."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I bought this car at the end of 2008 - just before the gov't began offering tax incentives to buy vehicles ... darn! Kept it for about 6 years. Anyway - I always loved this car, except for the fact that when driving in the city or any area where the roads weren't in great shape, you could feel every bump. Didn't bother me as much at first, but now that I'm in my 60's started to bother me. I also didn't like that despite being 2nd tier trim, the trunk only opened manually - not by the key-less entry remote. I always got great fuel mileage of at least 25 mpg and more on the road. I was always amazed by how much I could fit into the car if need be. For Example, my wife and I bought new kitchen cabinets that were boxed. We were able to fit all the cartons (the cabinets were not completely set up) into the car with a bit of room to spare. The guys at the cabinet store thought we were crazy trying to fit it all in, but then apologized after the fact when they saw how easily it all fit in. The car was great on long trips - very comfortable to drive for long hours. And if I wanted to take a snooze, very comfortable to pull off the road and lay the seats back to relax. A cinch to park - Great vehicle for city driving & parking Carried my large dog comfortably in the back seat. The rear seats folded 60/40 - only they didn't lay completely flat. Had no trouble fitting lumber, etc in the car - and if it was really too long, just kept the trunk open with a flag on the stuff sticking out. Soundproofing was pretty good - didn't hear trucks blaring next to us on the road and could easily carry on conversations and on the phone w/o issue. Great visibility - except for a blind spot or 2 on drivers side back window. Only major work needed was that after 45,000 miles (4 1/2 yrs) - I needed to replace the front struts/shocks which were about $700. The bumps really felt awful at that point, so I should've realized there was a problem. Only other major expense I had was replacing all four tires in 2012, all 4 brake drums in 2012 and the battery in 2013. Also the fog lights went a couple of times and were more expensive than I thought they'd be to have done. Other than that never had to bring it in for any service except for the brakes and oil changes - and warranty replacement of air stem sensors. Minor things began to go shortly after warranty ended, example a couple buttons on the radio - which were impossible to locate. The a/c heater fan, didn't kick in as easily after warranty ended, but still worked fine. Also - had to replace (under warranty) the air stems which let you know pressure was low. Brakes were obviously rusted from the get-go (you could see it from outside). The cheap plastic wheel covers - were especially a problem if I bumped the tires against curb - broke easily. With all the larger vehicles on the road (SUVs) I finally decided to sell the car so I could get something bigger so it was easier to see in front of me, otherwise I'd still have it today. I was able to sell it for $8500 w/o a problem - and that was after having 2 accidents, one of which required frame repair in back which impacted resale value."

Melbourne, Australia -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/17/2014 -- A clean home is a happy and safe one. Nobody wants to come home to, much less stay, in a place that is disorderly and odorous with all the dirt and grime homeowners never even pay attention to. In addition, a home for sale or rent that is thoroughly cleaned gives it a better chance of being bought or leased.
The carpet, an indispensable part of homes in Victoria, Australia, is arguably one of the most difficult decorative furnishings to clean. Dirt and dust that is invisible to the naked eye are often hidden forever unseen even when with thorough vacuuming and cleaning. Dirty carpets are not only an eyesore; they can be very bad for the health, particularly for individuals with low tolerance for dust, as well as for little babies or kids, and even pets crawling and playing on it.
In this regard, it is only imperative to find the most appropriate professional carpet cleaning Frankston and Mornington Peninsula services for a truly spotless carpet. Onstage Carpet Cleaning, a local company headquartered in Langwarrin, Victoria, specializes in the job. The crew takes their time and give clients the best results possible using heavy carpet cleaning machinery.
Satisfied customer Kelly Mitcherson sought the help of the team in 2011 and was very happy with the results: "Onstage Steam Cleaning were on time, provided excellent results and had some of the best prices I could find in my area.

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi is all about her guidette look, but on Wednesday she showed the world what she looks like underneath all of that bronzer and eye makeup.
"No make up day :) and IDC :)," she tweeted with a fresh-faced photo of herself. Gone are the fake eyelashes and black eyeliner -- it's Snooki au naturale!
We are loving the 'Jersey Shore' star without makeup, but we aren't the only ones. Snooki's fans took to Twitter to voice their approval of her bare look.
"Can I just say how amazing my fans/supporters are!" she responded. "You guys really know how to put a smile on my face! Love you all beyond words."

A one-time Gilbert police officer has been accused of neglecting his former job to perform private security for his apartment complex while on duty in exchange for $200 off his monthly rent.
The Arizona Peace Officers Standards and Training charging board on Wednesday issued a complaint against Kyle E. McIntosh, beginning a process that could lead to the suspension or revocation of his peace officer's certification.
After receiving the complaint, McIntosh will have 30 days to request a hearing to respond to the allegation, which was one of five in an internal affairs investigation brought against him by the Gilbert Police Department, said Diana Stabler, a spokeswoman for the state agency.
McIntosh, a patrol officer, resigned earlier this year before there were any disciplinary recommendations levied by his department. Four of the five allegations were sustained and two met criteria for consideration by the state board.
According to the state board, McIntosh entered into a contract with his apartment complex to provide security patrols in exchange for the $200 discount. McIntosh agreed to conduct foot patrols on the grounds, drive through the parking lot, respond to resident calls, tag abandoned vehicles and submit a written report of his activities, documents indicate.
McIntosh would do all of that at various times between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. from May 30, 2003, to Oct. 1, 2003. His on-duty patrol shift was 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. Investigators determined that McIntosh lied about his activities when confronted, Stabler said.
The other sustained allegations against McIntosh were wrongfully entering residents' private garages without permission or probable cause while looking for a burglary suspect, driving in a reckless manner while responding to a drunken driving call, and being spotted eating at a Denny's restaurant while the computer had him logged out for prisoner transport.
Another allegation, that he told a drunken driving suspect and his passenger that he "arrested people that did not speak English," was not sustained.

The Amateur Planner proposes a paved transit way with tracks for not just the B Line but the 57 and BU bus routes.
While we've never done this, other cities have, and it would have a whole host of advantages, including getting buses out of traffic (and bike lanes), stations better able to serve people with disabilities, even some additional parking spaces. Throw... Read more

Once you have a DSLR that shoots video, you need to be able to record that video onto a memory card. You are already familiar with memory cards, because you need them to shoot still photos. However, there are some things that you should keep in mind about memory cards when shooting video. If you are shooting RAW photos for your still photography, then you probably have a large memory card, maybe more than one card. You know that RAW files take up a lot of space and so you need that memory to deal with that. Video takes up even more space.
One of the things that is critical for shooting video is that you use big memory cards and that you have enough total memory. Remember that video is like 30 little pictures taken per second and every one of them has to be recorded to your memory card. How much memory do you need in your memory cards? I can't give you an exact figure, because this depends on the resolution, the frame rate used, and how the video is compressed when it is shot and recorded to your memory card.
Different types of video compression are used depending on the camera. Still, your camera is likely to do something similar to mine. What I have found when I am shooting with this camera, which is a Canon EOS 60D, I get approximately 20 minutes of video per eight gigabyte card. The 8 gigabyte card is a good size, because it's relatively inexpensive compared to bigger cards and yet it is large enough to record a significant amount of video. If you can afford a bigger card though, go for it.
Anything smaller than eight gigabytes will cause your card to fill up very quickly when you are shooting video, and if you add in some shooting of RAW files, you will probably be frustrated with that smaller card. Different cameras will take different types of cards as well. The two main cards that are used for DSLR cameras today are SD cards and Compact Flash or CF cards. If you have bought one of these cards recently, you're probably okay for recording video. Remember that your camera is doing a lot of work capturing video by recording all of those little images onto the card very quickly.
The card has to be able to keep up, so that it has to be fast enough to write data without choking the video. Almost any eight gigabyte or larger card that you would buy today is likely to be fine for video. Though you do want to be careful to use Class 6 or higher for SD cards, or use CF cards with a high speed rating. If you have older smaller cards, you will want to test them to see if you can actually use them for shooting video.
Batteries are another important accessory because of the amount of time that your camera is on while shooting video. Also in video mode, the LCD screen is always on, which can really use up battery power, and that's more than most photographers are used to. I find that I need approximately one battery per eight gigabyte memory card. You may find that you need more or less depending on your particular camera and how you are shooting. The point is that you are going to need enough batteries when you are shooting video.
It is very frustrating to have that great video shot in front of you and your camera is out of power. Having enough batteries is an important investment.

Mount hard drive D@mn Small Linux
I should also say that the hard drive doesn't even show up on /etc/fstab is there any way to check what disks are installed on this box?

just using the mount /dev/hdxx command should mount your partition. problem is, i'm not sure if DSL has ntfs read/write support.
All Empires rise and fall. The Microsoft Empire has already risen, only one way to go now...

You need the ntfs driver for mounting the win. drives in Linux.
You can find that driver here:

But is it possible to install anything at all when DSL is running within windows? This is not a real installation.... just running as a guest OS... Can this still be done?
- 07-11-2006 #5
As far as I know NOPE. With this driver you can just read the contents on the ntfs paritition, you can't write anything into it.

I wouldn't want to write to it, just as long as I can read...
But I guess it would look around, because it's running from within the windows drive, so installing something into DSL would in fact be the same as writing into drive <-- Correct me if I'm wrong here.

what about mounting hda1 or even sda1 while booting up DSL from a usb?
i ran "dsl toram", to load it in ram so it'd run a li'l faster, but i couldnt figure out how to mount/access the hdd or usb drive itself. at the bottom right it showed that it was mounted, but i couldnt access it to read/write conten to the usb. i only want to read from hdd for now.

But this is my fstab entry for mounting the Windows NTFS partition on Mandriva. Hopefully it will work on DSL:
/dev/hda2 /mnt/nt ntfs umask=0,nls=iso8859-1,ro 0 0

Qemu? Ok, that falls in the "VMware or similar" category I mentioned. It's an important detail.
I haven't used Qemu yet, but here is a a FAQ question that may or may not help.
